Margaret Raymond-Flood, a Member of law firm Norris McLaughlin, P.A., and Nicholas A. Duston, an Associate of the firm, presented "ESI: Where Technology Meets the Law" on October 17 at the Mercer County Bar Association’s 2019 Xtreme CLE.
“The impact of the federal and state court rules presents certain obligations on attorneys and corporate clients regarding ESI which impact litigation strategy. Those obligations should also be an important consideration for companies when considering corporate protocols and policies related to electronic information,” said Raymond-Flood.
Duston added, “It is important for those of us who are knowledgeable and experienced in these matters to share this information. The identification, preservation, collection, review, and production of electronic documents used to be relegated to large, multi-million-dollar litigations involving massive amounts of data. More recently, ESI has become a fact of life for all litigations, big and small, and attorneys in all practice areas should consider a working knowledge of ESI critical to their practice.”
The full-day event offered multiple discussion topics, including real estate, attorney discipline, business valuations, commercial loans, civil arbitration, municipal law, workers’ compensation, estate administration, family law, and more. For more information, visit mercerbar.com.
